Leaving the queen's tent, Concubine Shu asked Hongyan incredulously: "Is the queen's mother enlightened?" Before, even I thought that the queen moved to pick up the Xiushan house to lead the practice, why did she suddenly return to the red dust, thinking about accompanying the emperor all the time? ”

Hongyan only said: "This is the responsibility of the queen's mother, as the main room of the middle palace, she should stand by the emperor's side when she needs it, and she knows it very well in her heart." ”

Concubine Shu smiled at the red face: "You can be careful, since the queen mother has opened her mind, she didn't care about things in the past, and now she will take care of it, and it seems that the emperor will take you out to ride a horse on the road, and you won't shirk it." ”

Hongyan raised his face and said: "If it were you, you would be sure that you could push it off." ”

Concubine Shu sighed faintly: "Why be sarcastic about me, the emperor didn't have the heart to take me to ride a horse." Let's be his pillow person, everyone knows in their hearts that the emperor is a little affectionate and true to himself, and now I understand that I was confused back then, in fact, there is nothing wrong with Long Live Lord, it is our own heart that is wrong. ”

Hongyan was silent, and Concubine Shu continued: "The emperor's contribution is very clear, whether it is a night of happiness with you or a deep love, but we can't see it clearly." Our life, enjoy the glory and wealth, we will inevitably lose something, now I can be with you and Ruyin, as well as Concubine Yu, Sister Lu and they are good, and in the future and live a lifetime with harmony, the last life must also be a virtue. ”

Hongyan raised her eyes to her, and saw that the corners of Concubine Shu's eyes were shining, she didn't know how much Concubine Shu had a deep affection for the emperor, and she didn't know why she was sad, but after getting along for a long time and understanding each other's temperament and preferences, she naturally asked: "On the way here, I prayed in front of Ao Bao, what did my sister wish?" ”

Concubine Shu shook her head with a smile: "If you don't say it, it's not allowed to say it." ”

When Hongyan saw Concubine Shu say these words, her hand was inadvertently pressed on her lower abdomen, these women in the deep palace are not insatiable, and they don't have to ask for any heirs to enjoy the glory and wealth, just look at Concubine Yu, if you have a child, there are relatives in the courtyard of the deep palace, and it can be regarded as a husband and wife with the king in vain in this life.

"It's going to happen." Hongyan took Concubine Shu's arm and said, "Sister, sincerity is spiritual." ”

Concubine Shu's eyes were full of expectation, and she pushed away her red face with disgust and said: "What sincerity is spiritual, but I want to tell you what the queen mother just said, don't always dominate the emperor, the spirit is not spiritual, and it depends on the emperor's ......"

Hongyan shook her finger at her, squinted and smiled, "Don't say it." ”

On this day, the emperor only met with the Mongolian princes in the imperial tent, because of the fatigue of the journey, there was no banquet at night, and tomorrow the day the prey was rounded up and then the bonfire was lit, and then the singing and dancing were staggered, which would be a scene that they had never seen before.

Before leaving, Hongyan went to Pinghu Qiuyue to say goodbye to the concubine, Concubine Wen Hui said that Kangxi went to the grassland in the past, she entered the palace late, although she also drove a few times, it was not as grand and grand as Kangxi's thirty-year Duolun Alliance, she only heard Concubine Shouqi say, but she didn't catch up.

But even if it was not as grand as Kangxi's time, the scene that she heard from Concubine Wen Hui was now in front of her, and Hongyan still felt incredible. Standing outside the tent at night, looking up at the vast starry sky, although you can also see the starry sky in the Old Summer Palace, but so close and so dense, as if you are immersed in it, it is really only here. Even if it is a bottomless night around you, you will not feel oppressive and restrained, and the wind blowing on your face will bring the fragrance of fragrant grass and the breath of freedom.

Hongyan wrapped the cloak tightly on his body and said to the cherry beside him: "If it weren't for the fear of getting into trouble, I really wanted to go out for a walk, I really wanted to roll on the lawn under the sun, it was all done when I was a child." ”

Cherry asked, "Will the master go on horseback?" ”

Hongyan shook his head and said, "In order not to ride a horse, I didn't even bring a riding outfit, did I?" ”

Cherry smiled: "So what, the emperor didn't take you on horseback just like that." ”

Hongyan sighed lightly: "Happy is happy, who knows what will happen after that, you didn't see Concubine Jia looking at me during the day." ”

The cherry thief smiled sheepishly: "It's really embarrassing for her, I didn't stare at her eyeballs." ”

The night breeze was getting cooler, and the master and servant still went back to the tent, and the emperor's side, although there was a concubine with him, he did not call anyone to sleep tonight, the imperial tent was empty, and the emperor turned off the lights after he was busy with government affairs.

On the contrary, in the queen's tent, although the lights have long been extinguished, the queen sat on the couch wrapped in a quilt and did not sleep, at this time suddenly there was movement in front of the door, seeing that Hua Rong came back with a cold air, she jumped off the couch excitedly, and pounced on Hua Rong with bare feet. Frightened, Hua Rong hurriedly pressed the master back to the bed, and said helplessly: "Master, the slave has inquired, it is indeed several adults who take turns to be in charge of the defense, and it will be Fu Erye tomorrow and tomorrow night." ”

There was the sound of armor clashing outside, and there were steady footsteps passing in rows, and the queen grabbed Hua Rong's arm and pricked up her ears to listen carefully, and said with anticipation: "Then tomorrow night at this hour, they will also come here?" ”

Hua Rong knelt down and begged bitterly: "Master...... You must not go to Fu Erye. ”

The queen looked at her stupidly and said, "What do I ask him to do, I just admire the night sky in front of the door, and I just see him by the way." ”

Hua Rong actually cried, she was afraid that she would lose her head at any time, and she felt sorry for her master's fruitless unrequited love, but on the other side, she was obviously hiding her like a plague god.

The queen lay down, covered the quilt and said solemnly: "You can also rest, I will sleep, and tomorrow morning, I will accompany the emperor to meet the Mongolian ministers, and I will go hunting." ”

In the quiet night, Hua Rong's sobbing could still be heard, and the queen, who seemed to be asleep, finally said again: "Don't cry, it's a happy thing, I'm just running and having fun at this point, seeing him, and seeing him good, satisfied." ”

The next day, the weather was fine, the sun was shining, the cold at night was gone, the ladies were afraid of being damaged by the sun, and they hid in the shed, but the Ying nobles were not afraid of the sun, and were taken by the emperor and the queen to ride horses with the prince and the Fujin.

Hongyan also avoided the sun with everyone, and she didn't bring a riding costume at all, where there are many women, there are naturally many rights and wrongs, after all, although the palace is limited, many ministers have the emperor's grace and brought their families here, and the mouths of these ladies are broken.

Ruyin sat with Concubine Shu and Hongyan, watching a Mongolian girl make milk tea for them, this girl's face was dark and red, like the sun was under the sun, and someone on the side said: "Ying Guiren's fine skin and tender flesh, snow-white and snow-white skin, why is it not like the grassland at all." ”

Everyone looked at Concubine Yu, and Concubine Yu smiled good-naturedly: "We girls in the flag, waiting for the royal selection, the elders are not allowed to run and bask on the grassland, you only us, see the sky rolling in the grass waves?" ”

Concubine Jia said coldly: "It can be seen that the family is bothered to teach, no wonder Ying Guiren has good skills, and he can hook the Long Live Lord into a fascination." "Even more incidentally, he sneered at Concubine Yu, "My sister must lose in the role of my sister and them, if my sister has three more points of good looks, plus a smart child like Yongqi, how can she not be in the position of a concubine, but call me a stupid person, a shoulder taller than you?" ”

There is a Mongolian prince of Fujin, asked why they don't see the pure concubine, although they rarely enter Beijing and rarely face the saint, but as a subordinate, they must know the royal affairs, the emperor canonized the pure concubine is also announced to the world, even if they have not seen it, they also know that the concubine should be another one.

Concubine Yu followed these words and said: "If she is not careful, she will be sick, and I don't know when she will be able to go out to shop again. ”

However, Concubine Chun has been ill for so long, and the word that she was imprisoned by the emperor has long been spread, and people who are smarter understand that Concubine Yu is warning Concubine Jia, but Concubine Jia herself doesn't understand, and she still said proudly: "Even if it is not the appearance of the character, it is better than that of Concubine Chun, but now it must be different." ”

Someone under the seat covered her mouth and snickered, Concubine Yu didn't pay attention to it, and when she saw Concubine Shu and Hongyan smiling at her, she got up and asked the palace maid to move the stool, and let her sit at the same table with Hongyan and Concubine Shu.

At this time, a horse returned from a distance, and one of the guards dismounted from afar, all the way to the tent of the ladies, and bowed his head to tell the emperor of his whereabouts, saying that he had gone far, and it would take an hour to come back, and he asked the ladies to disperse and rest first.

Concubine Jia was already impatient, and lazily got up and took the palace people back to the camp, but suddenly thought of the Ying nobles who went out with her, and asked the guard: "The emperor and the queen mother, and the Ying nobles are together?" ”

The guard said: "When the servant came, I saw that the emperor took Ying Gui and several princes to race horses. Instead, the queen was left in place, and it was Lord Fucha who guarded her, and the concubine could rest assured. ”

Concubine Jia glanced at Hongyan meaningfully, but asked the guard: "Is it Fucha Fu Hengda?" ”

The guard responded: "It's Lord Fucha Fu Qing." ”

The sound of the cup breaking came, and Hongyan's heart trembled, thinking that it was Ruyin, but it was Concubine Yi who was sitting behind Ruyin. She said embarrassedly that her hand was slippery, Ruyin and Hongyan both looked at her suspiciously, and when everyone really dispersed, Ruyin asked Hongyan worriedly: "Did Concubine Yi Niangniang break the tea bowl in her hand by mistake, or did she break it when she heard the name of our second master?" ”

Hongyan was also worried, but she still said: "If you hadn't told me about this, I wouldn't have noticed that the queen had other thoughts for so many years, she was just more eccentric." ”

Ruyin frowned: "I hope Concubine Yi won't get involved, I hope she missed the teacup." ”
